My first visit to Beijing, China, was 15th of April to 15th of May 2007. Beijing is in my heart forever since then. Our 3 room apartment is in the Minan Residential Complex at Dongzhimen Nei Dajie, Dong Cheng District, Beijing. Local street is Dong Yang Wei Jie. Close to Gui Jie food street & the subway station Dongzhimen, busses, bicycling or walking to see all of central Beijings interesting sights. I´ve been to Beijing also in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2014. Who could ask for more?

Baozi, jiaozi, xianbing and roubing are some of China’s most familiar stuffed foods. But in the northeast, the grain of choice tends to be corn. Caituanzi (菜团子) are made in a similar fashion to baozi and jiaozi, but with a cornflour wrap that’s purported to lower pressure while filling nutritional needs.
Most caituanzi are stuffed with suancai, a kind of Chinese fermented cabbage that tastes sour. Many people believe that the sour pickled vegetable is good for the stomach. Go to recipe in this link: Caituanzi, the Baozi of the Northeast.
